A survey on the theory of bonds

Abstract: Many researchers tried to understand/explain the geometric reasons for paradoxical mobility of a mechanical linkage, i.e. the situation when a linkage allows more motions than expected from counting parameters and constraints. Bond theory is a method that aims at understanding paradoxical mobility from an algebraic point of view. Here we give a self-contained introduction of this theory and discuss its results on closed linkages with revolute or prismatic joints.

“…It was proven in [LSS18] that the mobility of a specific joint in a linkage is equivalent to the existence of a bond attached to that joint. Hence, for a mobile linkage, there is always some β for which A β is non-empty.…”

“…The main technique we use takes inspiration from bond theory, which has been developed to study paradoxical motions of serial manipulators, for example 5R closed chains with two degrees of freedom, or mobile 6R closed chains (see [HSS13,HLSS15,LSS18]). The core idea is to consider a compactification of the space of configurations of a manipulator which admits some nice algebraic properties.…”
